Abstract

Abstract The invention provides a process for homopolymerizing or copolymerizing ethylene in the presence of mixed catalysts comprising as component A the reaction products of specific tetravalent titanium compounds with chlorine-containing magnesium compounds containing at least 1.5 moles of OH groups per gramatom of magnesium and as component B an organo-aluminum compound. Under a pressure below 20 atmospheres the yields are so high per unit of catalyst that the residues thereof need not be removed from the polymer. It is possible to produce polymers having a very narrow distribution of molecular weight and very good color and corrosion values.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 19 words
The process of claim 1 whErein the molecular weight of the resulting polymer is regulated by means of hydrogen.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 41 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein component A is obtained by reacting the components at a temperature of between 0* and 200* C. in the presence of an inert diluent and washing the resulting reaction product to remove unreacted TiCl2(O-i-C3H7)2.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein component A contains 0.05 to 10 mg-atom titanium per gram of component A.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 32 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein the organo-aluminum compound has the formula R2AlCl or R3Al2Cl3 in which R stands for identical or different alkyl radicals having one to 16 carbon atoms.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 1, wherein component A is prepared at a temperature of 0* to 200* C.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 42 words
The process of claim 1, wherein the organo-aluminum compound is an aluminum trialkyl of the formula Al(R)3 or a dialkyl aluminum hydride of the formula Al(R)2H in which R stands for identical or different hydrocarbon radicals having one to 16 carbon atoms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
